The Blues in Pure DSD 256 Stereo! 

Queens Of The Blues is a standout Pure DSD 256 Stereo recording from Petra & the Paper Hearts. It is exclusively available in Pure DSD 256 at NativeDSD.  Lucky is the one who falls in love with the world of Blues or the early jazz as a musician. Adapting to the pop genre's external, mainly age-related, requirements is not compulsory. Both the twenty-year-old and older generations can play this music. Because of this acceptance, our band was formed. Petra, who is devoted to this genre, sought out some of the “Golden Oldies" of the profession (i.e. Sonny, Csabi and me…). She asked us what we would say to it if we tried to travel back in time together, with the help of the songs performed by the former "queens". Well, we agreed as we had a common musical language and knowledge of style. What a great experience! Of course, we can't entirely reproduce that era; strict professional criteria still determine the playing style, harmonization, and melody. Our primary consideration for the recording was to capture the songs as they used to back in the day. When musicians played together in one recording room as if they were playing in front of an audience. This meant that there was no possibility of subsequent corrections of the songs. We had to make compromises about whether some of the less well-produced sounds could remain on the recording. If the performance were otherwise musically and emotionally successful. Consequently, we accepted notes and sounds that strictly speaking are "mistakes". Resulting in these songs providing both the musical experience and the sense of the era. Petra & the Paper Hearts Petra Pintér, Vocals Szabolcs Nagy, Piano Csaba Pengó, Double Bass Sonny, Guitar
